Save Yourself from the Burning Pits!

Public Service Announcement #93

Do NOT-
I repeat; "DO NOT"

EVER!
Do Not Use your husband's electric shaver on your arm pits right before a bike ride.
RAZOR BURN + SALTY SWEAT=

My pits were On Fire! It made my eyes water it hurt so much!!!

Now, onto the actual blog:

Some of you may recall that yesterday I passed my milage mark biking. I had been doing around 2 miles since my surgery (May 21)

I used MAPMYRIDE and plotted a course...
Hey, does that remind anyone else of PIMP MY RIDE? It does me. Every time.

Anyway, I plotted a course that was about 4.8 miles. more than double my usual. bad idea. (combined with the bad idea to use my husband's razor on my arm pits)

OI biked out- 2.4 miles. at about 2.3 my vision started getting just a touch warbly.

By the time I got home , it was like I was looking through fractured glass- where the fractures PULSE brightly.

and them the headache started.

2 Excedrin + 2 Ibuprofen + Starbucks = cleared vision and half the headache.

By bedtime, the fractured vision was back (LEFT SIDE OCULAR MIGRAINE).
Very Shortly followed by intense right side migraine head pain.

When My son gave me a good-night kiss, he jabbed my RIGHT eye. It was my last good eye! DARN!

So I have a throbbing, fractured vision left -eye.
A sore, throbbing right eye.
A bad Migraine.

I had taken 2 Excedrin + 2 Ibuprofen when it first started.
I should have just taken 2 Fioricet. It was a 2 Fioricet Migraine.

I lay in bed, in the dark, with my eyes closed and curled up in a ball almost puking.

Around 2 AM it had gone down a notch, or I was just so fatigued I had relaxed. And it was time for Fioricet.

I was still awake till 3-ISH, I bet.

SO- I am doing NOTHING today!

and taking more Fioricet.

Ki Made Dinner Last Night:



Pancake Buffet: Blueberries and dark chocolate chips are the BEST!

Pus, she said

The cat got into a fight.
The cat now had pus filled wounds.
The vet tried to drain said pus from said wounds.
To no avail.
Now the cat has meds to take to combat the pus from the inside.
Said Cat does not like said meds that are to help said pus shrink up inside of said wounds.




Said Cat now has to wear a cone.
He does not like said cone.

In Other News:
I decided to track my calories, fiber, fat, exercise. I fund one of those sites that tells you how much of everything you should do/eat for how old, tall, fat you are. I ended up WAY over on my fat intake today. But the majority of my fat today comes from nuts and fish. Both of which are good sources of good fats, so I'm OK with that.

Vacation!

We are having a mini vacation in Corona, CA. Where it is about 105 degrees with to much humidity.

We are staying with gaming friends so we can attend one of thier game nights before we move.

Brian got his orders Wednesday for our move; meaning he had a meeting on base at 1:15. Meaning we hit rush hour traffic. Meaning we got to our friends house late.

We played 3 quick games with out friends. We taught them Gang of Four and 10 Days in Africa.

They got out 7 Wonders and taught us that. It was fun, but will be bettr next time when I play it next time.

Brian and I are playing a new game. Starship Catan.






Brian painted my nails. Actually I painted them pink, then he drew on them with a Sharpie Marker.

Tonight is Game Night. I have peppermint patties and nails to match my shirt tonight.

Hold on to your Hat!

For the next few days or so, some of these posts will be 'current' and some will be 'catching up'. Some may be both.
Today you get current. for now.
I started the day packing games for our trip to visit friends. They are having a game night. We are driving 4 hours to attend their game night.




Yes, that is a 31 Bag. I just got it. This will be it's maiden voyage.
Also today I got Ear Seeds. I asked for ear tacks and am upset that $60 later they were ear seeds. My regular puncture guy was closed today so I called another place. Dude. I was not super happy. But I got 10 seeds combined and will be activating the bejeebies out of them!




I have been having many migraines lately and really wanted actual ear tacks for the road-trip. These will have to do.
I have been making Peppermint Patties today. They are to bring to our friend's house. Ki was in charge if chopping the chocolate.




They are finally done and inn th fridge getting firm. I taste-tested one. OH MY YUMMINESS!!!!



CLICK HERE for the recipe. I changed it this time, substituting Coconut Oil for the milk and butter & adding some to the chocolate coating....


Brian got orders today from the Air Force. I get to see my boys next month!!!!
The older 2 are already in Ohio with my parents (read here)
OH, here is a finger nail picture I forgot. I wasn't super pleased with them. It was a trial thing.
